What is start-up capital?

Question 1: What is the meaning of start-up capital? Literally, the start-up funds can be understood as follows: when doing a project, the funds needed for the preliminary work of the project, such as the construction/decoration/greening of the factory building and related supporting facilities, are the operating funds after completion!

Question 2: How to get a large amount of start-up capital is very difficult for entrepreneurs, whether they are engaged in production, applying for patents or other things. But when manufacturers or marketers are willing to invest in your products, it will be relatively easy for entrepreneurs to obtain funds. Of course, entrepreneurs can also get financial support through community funds. Of course, all this does not mean that financing is easy. Only through good design can good products get loans. In other words, don't resign easily. Many entrepreneurs use credit cards or personal loans to pay the down payment. But it is impossible to get such a loan if an individual has no economic income. Therefore, apply for a loan before resigning. At this time, you can usually apply for a loan of 5 thousand or 10 thousand yuan Work until you don't need it. Pay close attention to your business experience, and don't apply for a loan if you don't have enough relevant experience. If you lack relevant experience, hire an experienced person or be a business partner, which can help you succeed. Making preparations at an early stage will help you achieve your ultimate goal. It can also help you keep in touch with the manufacturers. The related expenses are as follows. 1. Start-up capital: usually one hundred dollars to one thousand dollars. These funds are used for early market analysis. You can also join a trade organization to trade and interview people in the industry. This will help you understand the market potential of your idea. Prepare a detailed statement explaining why you want to carry out your project. This statement is also a document to ensure that you can get investment from family, friends and investors. 2. Understand the market: It usually costs 200 to 2,000 dollars to attend trade fairs and related meetings, which is conducive to opening social networks and understanding competitors. You can introduce your project to potential investors through start-up funds and prepared reports. In this way, you will have a better statement. You'd better prepare a booklet to make relevant records. Even if you don't need funds yet, you should seize this opportunity to attract investors, because you only need a small amount of investment. Ask one third of the investors for $500, prepare brochures and models, and attend two trade fairs. Your goal is to establish contacts within the industry. Before attending the exhibition, you need to apply for a patent and tell people that your product is applying for a patent. 3. Models, examples and patents: between 500 dollars and 20,000 dollars. The number depends on your patent strategy and the complexity of the model. Once you get the exact information, your product has great market potential, so you should build a good model and start the patent strategy. Now, your purpose is to prepare a product, a brochure and an advertising package, as well as a joint venture or joint venture agreement. Think carefully about the patent strategy and study your project with your end customers. Then, investors and contract manufacturers in related industries should be considered. They invested very little in the early stage, and then they needed to invest more money. Once you have the initial investment, it is relatively easy to get the investment from these investors. You can also get investment through relatives and friends, but this financing method is not the most ideal. 4. Research results: The amount between $300 and $6,000 depends on the trade fairs and core industry conferences you attend. After preparing the products, brochures and advertisements, we will interview the end users of the products from all over the country. The more people you interview, the better. Talk to them about your ideas and they will give you a certain response. Your goal is to prove that your products can be sold, and you can let investors and companies in the industry prepare products with you. The more investors you attract, the better. Show them your products. If they see that end users are interested in products, they will invest. The process of product preparation looks terrible, but the goal can be achieved step by step. The following is a detailed introduction: 1. Prepare a statement: 1, 500 to 4,000 dollars, depending on how far you have to go. If you want to be a private brand or a joint venture, you need a model, an impressive statement and research to show that your product has a market. In this process, you need to prepare a statement that can show the advantages of your product. The best investors are all in the industry, which means that the products will sell well. If it is your own brand, your OEM may be willing to provide financial support. 2. Preparation materials:10,000 to $200,000, depending on the complexity of the product and whether a salesperson is hired ..... >; & gt

Question 3: What is the start-up capital? Many people have the same problem. As an entrepreneur, I used to be like you. I only have ideas without technology and capital. I am afraid that if I tell others, others will steal my ideas.

I think you can talk to people around you who you think are reliable and knowledgeable, and listen to their opinions. First, many people have this "illusion" that their ideas will be feasible and will definitely change the world. As a result, this idea may have been realized by others long ago, but you just didn't know it, and you went from heaven to hell in an instant. All right! Officially began to answer your questions. If you think my answer is valuable, please increase the reward to 200! I have seen too many such questions, and it is the first time to formally answer such entrepreneurial questions.

Where is your application mainly used? What kind of problems are solved?

Who are the customers and users of your products? Do you know that?/You know what?

Has anyone started this industry? Who are your competitors? If not, what are the reasons? Technical problem or policy problem, or something else.

How does your product make a profit and how long is the expected profit cycle?

What is the budget for 5W? Is it only the labor cost of development, excluding promotion and maintenance?

Where did your first users come from? How to ensure that others will definitely use your product? How to ensure that your product can be known by more people?

If you have thought about all these questions, let's continue with the following questions:

1. You said you don't know technology, so can you draw? If so, have you drawn a sketch of the product?

2. Do your so-called applications include Android and ios platforms? As far as I know, if it is a brand-new product and you want to develop an application on one of the platforms, the budget of 50,000 yuan is actually very tight and you must make a choice. Which platform are you going to develop first? Do you know which platform your potential customers are on? Which platform customers are more willing to pay for your products? Have you done any research on these?

3. How can you find your team with 50,000 yuan without outsourcing?

Let's talk about that first An idea may take only three minutes, but it may take two months or more from idea to concept, to demo, to beta, to official version. Work hard, Sao nian!

Ps: In addition, you can read books about lean entrepreneurship, which will give you some inspiration.

Question 4: What kind of business does not need start-up capital to solve the business that does not need start-up capital?

What kind of business doesn't need start-up capital? Service industry. As long as there is demand, you will meet that demand, the price is right, the service quality is good, and there will be customers. My service is similar to what I used to do in IAEA, and now my employer is still using the students I recruited. Many people will think that someone is already doing this. You go in and do it again. How can you do it better than others? Others have brands, histories and backgrounds. What do you have? In fact, entrepreneurship really doesn't need these things. Entrepreneurship needs liquidity. Going to the market to find customers needs the ability to solve problems. When customers have problems, you should care about them at the first time and solve their problems for them. People's hearts are all meat. Whoever cares more about customers will win the trust of customers. So the key is how to make your service better and better and meet the needs of customers more and more, instead of selling your service to customers. Don't spend money to find customers

How can small and medium-sized service enterprises find customers without spending money? Quite simply, there are many resource gathering platforms in the society to provide various needs and information. Like my service, simply speaking, it is human resources service, and the market segment is foreign construction talents. Google on the internet looked at the recruitment of foreign construction talents, and a lot of websites came out at once. Find two friends and spend an afternoon sorting out 200-300 enterprises. Everyone can do this process. How to do it well depends on your vision of identifying the platform website. Now, ABBS Forum is the best gathering place for domestic construction enterprises, and all the above enterprises are customers who spend money on advertising. Since they can spend money in ABBS, why can't they ask for your service? As long as you can provide them with talents. In other words, no matter how small the enterprise is, as long as you can provide what others need, you can find customers. When customers negotiate, it is important to give in to each other.

It is common for customers to negotiate and bargain. Some big companies bargain very conveniently and basically don't bargain with you. They have a good relationship with HR. You can raise 5%- 10%. No problem. Some companies that are new to you, if they haven't used your service, will ask you to make it cheaper or give you a discount. Generally speaking, if you want to give me a discount, for example, if you want to give me a discount, can you make it cheaper? Stick to a principle, you can promise everything and do what you actually have to do. In fact, the other party also wants you to make a commitment, but there will be many situations in actual operation that everyone can't define, but you can't refuse the other party at the first time, because it will make the other party feel that you are a difficult person, so you can't get off many lists. So when someone kills you, give yourself a bottom line. If you are above this bottom line, do what you can. After all, small enterprises can only survive if they have a list, and they can only drink the northwest wind to save face. Ensure the quality of service

How to ensure service quality? As the saying goes, doing one thing and loving one thing all mean focusing on one thing. I feel that comrades who just started a business can't concentrate on one thing. They must do more. Then find what you are best at in 1-2 years and concentrate on it. For example, in international exchange, you can go out as a domestic student, come in as a foreign student, or both. Then you can see for yourself. If you are doing well in recruiting students on domestic campuses and prefer to run around and give lectures, you can consider going out as a domestic student. For example, I don't like giving lectures, so it is difficult to cooperate with school teachers. It's really tiring to mobilize their enthusiasm, so I don't do much for domestic students to go out. Teachers in foreign universities are more efficient, and enrollment and the like are all school-level operations. As long as I do a good job in the selection of domestic enterprises and international students, I choose to do things that come in from abroad. There are also many foreign agents, all of whom are very capable peers. It is more efficient to recruit students through them. In the human resources service industry, you are the boss, and your service quality is guaranteed, so you should insist on establishing contact with foreign universities and agents. Ensure core competitiveness and stand at the forefront of the industry.

Due to the low entry threshold and no cost, the competition in the service industry is fierce. Therefore, the market you choose is very important. You need to find a market with high entry threshold. Take the market I choose as an example. Overseas architectural design interns are foreigners first, followed by architectural design majors. These are market segments, and large human resources enterprises will not spend too much effort to close down. > & gt

Question 5: How much start-up capital do you need to start a business? Hello! I am honored to answer this question. As the upstairs said, "money is not a problem, the most important thing is the feasibility of your project"!

The essence of our entrepreneurship is to survive first, then live, and improve our comprehensive ability.

Investing is not necessarily profitable; Investing in small projects does not necessarily mean that you can't make big money. It depends on your vision and concept, so how to choose the ideal entrepreneurial project is the most important, and choice is more important than hard work!

I will talk about my views on the choice of entrepreneurial projects, hoping to help you.

Here are some principles for my choice of industry:

1. Products must have high quality and competitive prices in the market. Products are constantly updated, the demand is large, and they can be consumed repeatedly.

2. Even ordinary people can do it, with strong operability, guidance from teams or teachers, and a perfect training system.

3, can play their own talents and specialties, can be copied and enlarged.

4. The amount of transactions is fast and convenient, and there are no payables, receivables and triangular debts.

5, less dealing with * * * department, less contact with dinner, less entertainment, avoid unnecessary business expenses.

6. Spend more time wearing casual clothes.

7. sunrise industry, high growth, trend and long-term development.

8. Being respected, having a sense of belonging and accomplishment.

9. The profit model should be unique, and few people have the opportunity to know.

10. It doesn't matter if you are a little bitter and tired, but the investment should not be large, the risk should be small, and the development should be doubled.

If you are self-motivated, you can also discuss with me, otherwise it is a waste of each other's time. I hope I can help you.

Success begins with understanding. Maybe you have more insights and information, and you have the opportunity to choose. This is also a responsible attitude towards yourself.

Question 6: How much start-up capital do you need to start a business? Do you have 2000 yuan?

Don't aim too high when you have little money.

Everyone knows how to make money in Shanxi coal mines, but how many people can do it? (Very irrelevant)

Use your 2000 to sell fruit, about 2 or 3 vendors, and the profit is about 50%!

Choose a good location, and if the urban management doesn't "patronize" you every day, it should be no problem to return to 5000 a month except for expenses.

Then make a snack with 5000 yuan, which depends on people to drive business, as long as it is not very bad, it is ok! I mean the kind of snack street where stalls are allowed. Since you only have 5000 yuan, which is only enough for investment and not enough for buying a booth (or umbrella), you have to pay attention to "cats". Still quite profitable. If the consumption situation in your area is not too bad, it can be doubled in one month (but it is illegal in the end, so don't do it, and then transfer the previous equipment). You have 20 thousand at this time!

Next, I won't talk nonsense (because of stocks, futures and foreign exchange, if you can ask such a question, it is estimated that if you do, it will also be meat buns hitting dogs. Don't go back if you have it! )

In the case of less funds, wisdom is your capital, as long as you are not arrogant and are good at using your existing resources! Some speculative common sense! You can make money (this completes the concept of buying and selling)

This period is also the time for you to accumulate original experience if you go into business in the future.

Question 7: How did Ma Yun start his business? How much did you spend? Ma Yun started his business at the age of 30 and founded the first professional translation agency-Haibo Translation Agency in Hangzhou.

1995,31year-old Ma Yun, the "best English in Hangzhou", was entrusted by the Zhejiang Provincial Communications Department to collect debts in the United States. As a result, the money didn't reach a penny, but he found a "treasure house"-in Seattle, Ma Yun, who knew nothing about computers, went online for the first time. As soon as he learned to surf the Internet, he thought of making an online advertisement for his translation company. In the morning 10, he posted the advertisement online. Before noon 12, he received six emails from the United States, Germany and Japan, saying that this was the first webpage they had seen about China. Ma Yun realized at that time that the Internet was a gold mine. I began to fantasize about going back to China and setting up a company specializing in the Internet. Ma Yun came up with the idea of collecting information about domestic enterprises and publishing it online to the whole world. He immediately decided to cooperate with friends in Seattle, which is the world's first B2B e-commerce model, and thus began to have creativity. And named it China Yellow Pages.

On the night of returning home, Ma Yun made an appointment with 24 friends, who were also nominal students of his night school, to introduce them. As a result, 23 people objected, and only one person said that he could try. Ma Yun thought about it all night and decided to do it the next morning, even though 24 people opposed it.

"In fact, the biggest determination is not that I have great confidence in the Internet, but that I feel that doing one thing, the experience is success, you can take a trip, you can turn around if you can't, but if you don't do it, it's just like thinking about thousands of roads at night and getting up in the morning to take the same road." When Ma Yun mentioned it, he appreciated his courage, not his vision.

1April, 1995, Ma Yun, aged 3/kloc-0, invested 7,000 yuan, and joined his sister, brother-in-law, parents and other relatives to raise 20,000 yuan to establish Haibo Network, becoming one of the earliest Internet companies in China, and the product was China Yellow Pages.

1996, 32-year-old Ma Yun made great efforts to promote his Chinese Yellow Pages. In many cities without internet, Ma Yun is always called a liar, but Ma Yun is still as indomitable as a madman. He reminds himself every day: "The Internet is a 3000-meter long-distance race, which will affect human life in the next 30 years. You must run as fast as a rabbit and as resistant as a tortoise. " Then go out and talk to people about the internet and convince customers. This business is difficult to carry out. 1996 The transaction was actually 7 million! That is, this year, the Internet gradually became popular.

1March 1996, due to the disparity in strength of Hangzhou Telecom, Ma Yun finally had to cooperate with Hangzhou Telecom. Ma Yun's China Yellow Pages assets were converted into 600,000 yuan, accounting for 30% of the shares, and Hangzhou Telecom contributed 6,543,800 yuan+0.4 million yuan, accounting for 70% of the shares. Later, due to different business ideas, Ma Yun and Hangzhou Telecom parted ways, gave up their own China Yellow Pages and gave all their 265,438+0% shares in China Yellow Pages to employees who started a business together.

This year is 1997, which is the first failure of Ma Yun's entrepreneurial career. Ma Yun was 33 years old this year.

1997, after Ma Yun left China Yellow Pages, he was invited by MOFTEC to join China International Electronic Commerce Center (EDI), a newly established company founded and managed by MOFTEC, with 30% of the shares, and participated in the development of official website and later online China commodity trading markets of MOFTEC. In this process, Ma Yun's btob idea gradually matured, "serving small and medium-sized enterprises with e-commerce". He even thought about the domain name of the website-Alibaba. The Internet is like an endless treasure, waiting for people to explore, just like the cave opened by Alibaba with a spell.

1999, 35-year-old Ma Yun was fed up with the bondage, stumbling and timidity of working in * * * enterprises. Ma Yun turned down the invitations from Sina and Yahoo and decided to start a business in Hangzhou. All the players gave up other opportunities and decided to follow. This year is 1999, which is the second time that Ma Yun failed to start a business.

199965438+1October 15, Ma Yun and his team quietly returned to the south.

1February, 1999, the first plenary meeting was held in Ma Yun's home on the lakeside in Hangzhou. 18 entrepreneurs are sitting or standing around the impassioned Ma Yun with serious expressions. Ma Yun delivered a speech quickly and crazily, "Explore together in the dark, shout together, and I won't panic if I shout forward." You take ... >>

Question 8: What are the main sources of venture capital? 1. own funds. This is mainly my own savings. Generally, people who have worked for several years have some savings, and this part of the money is the basic fund for their own business.

The second is equity financing, that is, entrepreneurs or small and medium-sized enterprises give up part of their equity to obtain investors' funds, so that investors can hold shares as shareholders instead of borrowing. It is a kind of financing with certain venture capital nature, and it is a financing method in which both investors and financiers enjoy the benefits and bear the risks. For small and medium-sized enterprises that do not have the conditions of bank financing and capital market financing, this financing method is not only convenient, but also operable.

3. Debt financing means that entrepreneurs or small and medium-sized enterprises use loans (private loans) from financial institutions or non-financial institutions such as banks to finance. After a certain period expires, the parties must repay the principal and pay interest. Lending to financial institutions requires certain conditions such as mortgage, credit and pledge guarantee, while private lending relies more on credit and third-party guarantee.

4. Policy loans refer to the micro-loan policies (such as policies for laid-off workers) issued by the * * * department to support a certain group's entrepreneurship, and also include the establishment of many funds to support the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, such as small and medium-sized enterprise development funds and innovation funds. These policy loans are characterized by low interest rates, low industrial policy discounts, even interest-free, long repayment period, or even no repayment. However, in order to obtain these funds, certain policy conditions must be met.

5. Financial leasing means that the lessor purchases equipment according to the leased equipment and suppliers selected by the lessee for the purpose of providing financing to the lessee, and the lessee obtains the long-term use right of the equipment at the expense of paying the rent by signing a financial leasing contract with the lessor. As far as the lessee is concerned, the purpose of financing is achieved through financial leasing.

6. Others, including short-term pawn and angel investment. Angel investment mainly refers to a private investment method in which individuals or families with certain capital make early investment in start-ups with development potential. Angel investment is a kind of venture capital, but unlike most venture capital projects in the growth stage and listing stage, angel investment mainly invests in unique invention and creation plans, innovative individuals and seed-stage enterprises, and "gives timely help" to seed-stage projects that have not yet hatched. It only "helps" the invention plan or seed stage project, and the task of "giving a ride" is completed by institutional venture capital. And supplier financing, dealer prepayment and other forms.

Question 9: How to start a business without initial capital? Step one: it's not money, it's mission. When a friend starts a business, the first thing to think about is the mission: what is the significance and value of what you do? The second step of starting a business: not money, but strategy. * * * When there was no money in the war, we were able to win the battle. The reason is that this strategy is appropriate. The ancestors summed it up well: everything is established in advance, and it is abolished if it is not planned. Entrepreneurial friends, although we can't wait until everything is ready before going to war, at least before going to war, we should have a concern about how to fight and win this war. Otherwise, didn't you kill yourself? When you kill everyone, will you still be alive? At the beginning, if the funds are not enough, we can start with some projects with less funds. You can start with the internet, open a shop online and act as an agent. These are all feasible methods. The third step of starting a business: not money, but cash. When you lead a team to fight, you always have some goals, especially those who have no money to lead. You must achieve the promised and designed goals one by one until the money starts to drill into your pocket. If you can achieve your goal step by step, your morale will not run away; If morale is there, the team will not break up; If the team is United, success is just around the corner. Therefore, friends on the road to entrepreneurship should review the methods of leading the team. When you can unite a group of people with * * *, wisdom, vision and courage to achieve one goal after another, your entrepreneurial dream will basically come true. But then again, money is not useless, it depends on how you use it. Let me say a few words here to talk about scientific use of money. As the saying goes: good steel is used on the blade. Is that money should be used in key places. This money is usually used when the bayonet sees red. If you want to find money when starting a business, why do you want to find money? Not starting your own business, but when you make money, you need money most. I don't remember who said: China has no secrets, and China's secrets will last for half a year. This tells us a truth: it doesn't matter if you don't make money, there is a blue ocean ahead. Once you make money, someone will compete with you, and the once blue ocean will turn red. At this time, you will compete with others. Struggle is a science. At this time, it is not enough for you to have a team, but also to have money. Relying on your own primitive accumulation, you can only fight leftovers. At that time, you had to spend a lot of money to destroy everything that came out to rob you, so that your career could be bigger.

Question 10: What is start-up capital? What are the contents of start-up funds? Start-up capital includes start-up capital and working capital. Start-up capital is the upfront cost of the project, including store decoration, purchase of equipment and goods, etc. These are the most basic funds. In the later period, you should expect the return and capital turnover to be in a virtuous circle. If you are a small business, remember not to be big at first, and control the cost. I hope it will help you ~ ~
